Flatford

Carol and I wanted to see Nerine McIntyre’s completed painting of Flatford .This was her prize commission for the National Trust for winning the Sky Landscape Artist of the year 2015. The painting is on show in the cafeteria. We had enjoyed the series so it was good to see the finished work.

Sky's landscape artist of the year, 2015.
"Flatford in Summer" by Nerine McIntyre 

Here are a few shots I took of the area on the day. The light was very low in the southern sky so not ideal for shooting subjects such as Willy Lott’s Cottage but good practice anyway.

Wimpole Hall

The following shots are from a walk through Wimpole’s grounds on Sunday.

The kissing gate

Duxford

On Friday I spent the day at the Imperial War Museum Duxford, this is part one of my day’s shoot. In the late afternoon the sun decided to put in an appearance after a very overcast day. I decided to take a few shots of the tails of the aircraft out on the apron. There is a lot of clutter around these aircraft making it difficult to get any really good shots but shooting into the light has given a few interesting shapes & overcome the problem.

For those that are aircraft enthusiast it may be fun to figure out the aircraft.

Anglesey Abbey

The parkland at the abbey is particularly beautiful at this time of the year with the many different autumn colours. As the light was very strong and giving lots of harsh shadows I decided in an effort to do something a little different to shoot into the light. The following are a few of my images taken on Sunday afternoon.
